Q. & A. with Tera

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have always bred off and on for about 20 years. i have done a few different breeds but when I got my Yorkie, everyone wanted one like her so I started breeding. I only breed once a year and after their 3rd to 4th litter they are fixed, or if the vet recommends it.
  • What makes your program special?

    We Embark all our breeding dogs, all our babies live in our house with us and get a lot of love. They are OFA tested, and we have a trainer lined up to work with you to get your puppy trained wether you want obedience or a working dog for hunting.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
